Best of...

Given the time lapse between then (that would be the last post) and now (months later), a grand narrative or running commentary isn't in the cards for me right now. I do, however, take the time each Saturday to go through my Google Reader and marvel at the great things other people post!
I thought it might be worthwhile to collect those I a) email to myself or b) email to anyone I think would be interested. This seems much more tech savvy. It also seem much less like something a crazy old lady would do-- you know the one who sends you clipped out articles from the local paper because they tangentially relate to something you once mentioned was interesting?

1. Are you a mover or a shaker? If so, ArchivesNext wants to know. Certainly this blog post will push me to the top of her list!
2. How post-modern is this? I was reminded of this article on personal digital archiving in the March/April D-Lib after reading a list of "links for 2008-3-18" from the creator of the Television Archiving blog. You can find the second part of the article by clicking here.
   
3. Add to the grand "to do" list: put OSU on the American Historical Association wiki for information about archival resources around the world.
   
4. For your spare time this Easter holiday, the NISO Framework Working Group (with support from the Institute of Museum and Library Services) has released the third edition of A Framework of Guidance for Building Good Digital Collections.
   
5. The Pauling Blog, aka the things that is happening two floors above my office: Check out the OSU Special Collections blog about all things Pauling.
